There will be 18,000 season ticket holders at Portman Road next season the club have announced this afternoon. Originally they were going to cap this at 16,000, but the sheer numbers of applicants have pushed this figure up. Existing season ticket holders will get their application forms when the delayed forms arrive whilst new ticket holders have two options. Members of last season's Portman Plus and Blues Crew will be second in the queue for tickets, although Blues Crew members can only apply if their application is accompanied by a qualifying adult. The remaining tickets will go to a ballot of everyone else. Those wishing to take part should send an SAE to the club for their application form. No dates are being mentioned as yet so presumably it's get your application for an application in as soon as possible, fill in the form and then get it straight back. The club will also be running a priority scheme for the 1 -2,000 tickets remaining for individual matches.
